"The cross is the greatest of all evidences of the love of God. After the death of a certain prisoner, there was found on the wall of his cell a picture of a large cross with the word "Love" written at the four ends of the two beams indicating that the cross alone measures the height, depth, and breadth of the love of God 'which passeth knowledge.' While the highway of holiness is sprinkled with blood, it is also paved with love,. The cross is the science of salvation, and it will be the song of the redeemed throughout all eternity. E.G. White writes: 'To remove the cross from the Christian would be like blotting the sun from the sky. The cross brings us near to God, reconciling us to Him...Without the cross, man could have no union with the Father. On it depends our every hope. From it shines the light of the Savour's love; and when at the good of the cross the sinner looks up to the One who died to save him, he may rejoice with fullness of joy; for his sins are pardoned. Kneeling in faith at the cross, he has reached the highest place to which man can attain.' - "Acts of the Apostles," pages 209, 210."
